The CGAC's Activities and Pedagogical Department develops its programme with a primary goal: to bring art to society through the rigorous analysis of critical issues inherent in contemporary artistic activity.
Film seasons and conferences, workshops, seminars and concerts, make up the centre’s fundamental offer of activities, aiming to involve a wide range of audiences from the professional sector of the world of art and culture to an increasingly larger group of artists and fine art and history students, not to mention all those interested in the evolution of art and aesthetic reflection.
At the same time, the CGAC develops specific programmes for schools and colleges as well as guided tours, with the purpose of providing the various groups who come to the museum with the necessary tools to understand contemporary art and, from there, the world we live in.

This workshop provides an introduction to risograph printing and serves as a basis for learning and handling a risograph machine.This printing process is based on transferring ink using a stencil like a mimograph. Unlike other techniques such as offset printing, there is no wasted ink, fixatives, or disposable aluminium plates. Furthermore, its energy consumption is minimal since it is based on a cold printing process.
The artist Ignacio Pérez-Jofre proposes a creative experience based on objects found in the public space with one premise: to create artwork using only objects found in the public space. Therefore, it is not permitted to use materials purchased or provided prior to the start of the workshop, or auxiliary materials or tools, beyond what is found on the streets.
